Hello

I'm building a dnn website for my client and they need to be able to upload large files mostly video type stuff which will be large than 10mb possibly up to 20mb. I have found that the site (DNN 3.2) even in Host mode will show a nasty error when I try to upload a large file. But is OK if its below 10mb. I cant see anything in the Host settings to change this I fiddled with a few but it has made no dif.

Please can someone help?

Thanks in advance

I have a few answers and questions on my site - here's my response to that particular question

 Open your web.config file in notepad, do a CTRL F - (find) and type in large - it will take you to this place below.

(<)!-- allow large file uploads (-->)
httpRuntime useFullyQualifiedRedirectUrl="true" maxRequestLength="8192"
Replace the code and add the following extra code - It's allowing not only size, but time as well.

maxRequestLength="100240" executionTimeout="12000"

Be sure to make a backup of your web.config before doing any changes.

Also I have had to put () in this space because otherwise it shows nothing, so ignore these tags, just look at the numbers!

Thanks Nina

That worked although I did make the mistake of replacing 

<httpRuntime useFullyQualifiedRedirectUrl="true" maxRequestLength="8192" />
As:
<maxRequestLength="100240" executionTimeout="12000" />
In stead of:
<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="100240" executionTimeout="12000" />

Which worked a treat
